Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide Inc. (NYSE: HOT) said it's bringing an upscale Le Méridien brand hotel to Cleveland.
The hotel operator said Le Méridien Cleveland is expected to open in January 2016 "following the completion of a highly anticipated, adaptive re-use project that will join together and transform two adjacent, historic buildings on Euclid Avenue."
Starwood said the hotel will be developed at 1001-1101 Euclid Ave. as part of a project that will connect the John Hartness Brown Building (JHB Building), constructed in 1901 as a multistory office building with retail space, and 1101 Euclid Ave., built in 1915 as an office building.The hotel will have 206 guest rooms and suites. Starwood said Le Méridien Cleveland also will feature a full-service restaurant, signature bar, a 3,000-square-foot lounge, an indoor pool, a 24-hour fitness center and more than 12,000 feet of meeting and event space.The development also will include 10,500 square feet of ground-floor retail space and a 125-space parking garage.The hotel will be owned by an investor group called JHB Hotel LLC. Starwood said Le Méridien Cleveland will be the brand's third historic adaptive re-use project in North America, following Le Méridien Philadelphia and Le Méridien Tampa. It will showcase "a timeless chic design ethos that juxtaposes traditional architecture with contemporary style.""Le Méridien Cleveland will build upon the brand's success with historic, adaptive re-use projects and provide travelers with an enticing new option in the heart of Cleveland's thriving theatre district," said Allison Reid, senior vice president of North America development for Starwood, in a statement.

Rival teams frequently ask about Darwin Barney and it's possible the Cubs will trade the second baseman.
Similarly to LaHair, I know the obvious response is that nobody would offer enough to make it worth trading a player as productive as Barney at his price, but say that they do? If someone wants to overpay, or even sprinkle in some extra prospects in a Dempster or Garza I'd do it in heartbeat. I doubt that anyeone expects him to continue his 3.2 WAR play, and if this could be the definition of selling high.
Our next options for 2nd would be Cardenas, Valbuena, Lake, and DeWitt could then each audition for 2nd once Baker's gone.

Oracle to Invest More in MySQL Development
In a new FAQ, Oracle explains their position regarding SPARC, Solaris, Java, MySQL, and Open Office to clear up the many questions circulating.
Oracle considers Java the number one priority, next to Sun's server business (storage and Sparc technologies). According to Oracle's published document," Oracle plans to not only broaden and accelerate its own investment in the Java platform, but also plans to increase the commitment to the community that helps make Java an ubiquitous, innovative platform unified around open standards." The designated Sun owner does not wish to give up work on Oracle's Weblogic server, rather would like to invest in the integration of the infrastructure of both servers.
Oracle apparently plans on leaving development environment Netbeans as it is. It is intended as a third option next to the Java IDE Jdeveloper and the Eclipse plug-in "Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse". Investing in Netbeans is not being discussed at present.
In terms of MySQL, Oracle would clearly like to outdo Sun: "Oracle plans to spend more money on developing MySQL than Sun does now." MySQL will be added to Oracle's database suite and emphasizes the fact that Oracle already distributes MySQL as an integrated part of Oracle's Linux as an option.
Among the plans to move forward is engagement in the Open Office project. For business customers, a guarantee, support, as well as special tools and a typical commercial license will be provided. The name Staroffice, however, is not to be found among the five pages of the released statement.
The some 500 KB PDF "Oracle and Sun Overview and FAQ" linked from the Sun info site from Oracle. In the Open Source section of the web announcement, Open Office and MySQL have yet to take their places.

FEETPOT GARDENING Possibly the most efficient way to grow greens organically.
Simple idea,
amazing results!
You fill bottle
Bottle waters tray
Wicks water pot
Soil in pot has a generous amount of compost or worm castings
I could never keep plants alive. I always over-watered. To solve this I went to the hardware store and bought the following items.
1 - nursery pot (with 8 holes in the bottom)
4 - nylon standoffs (1 inch long)
4 - nylon screws (1/2 inch long)
1 - pack cotton cord (for wicks)
I used the screws to attach the standoffs to the bottom of the pot. This created feet that would hold the pot above water in a tray. I then cut an 8 inch piece of the cotton cord to use as a wick. I inserted the wick up through a hole in the bottom of the pot and then back out through a hole on the other side. I then filled the pot with soil. All I needed to do then was plant seeds and keep water in the tray.
What I had created was a "Feetpot." I hope you will consider converting a few of your own nursery pots. You will be surprised at how well this works. I easily keep 15 trays of greens growing indoors and just recently found a way to pump water from a 5 gallon reservoir through a series of rain gutters on a table in my back yard. Water flowing in the gutters keeps greens in a large number of Feetpots very happy. The moving water also keeps mosquitoes from breeding. A de-icer in the water reservoir keeps the water from freezing. The de-icer and a row-cover have turned my Table Farm into a REAL SIMPLE greenhouse.
Watch Table Farm Video
To maintain nutrients I use a mini turkey baster to deliver one ounce of nutrient solution to each 4 inch pot weekly. I prepare a fish and seaweed fertilizer solution using one teaspoon of fertilizer for each cup of water. My soil is 80% coconut coir and 20% worm castings. I'm starting tests using 75% coconut coir with either 25% worm castings or 25% compost.

A dog was chasing the eight-point buck when it crashed through the window of the Menomonie school's Vocational Rehabilitation building shortly after 4 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 7, according to a news release from the school.
The deer, leaving a trail of blood on the floor, then escaped through automatic doors on the south side of the building. It was tracked south through campus, but the blood trail eventually ended and the deer wasn't found.

Village of Shorewood Celebrates Gift of Plensa Sculpture
Public Dedication Ceremony on September 21 To Include Visit by Artist
A public sculpture by the internationally known Spanish artist Jaume Plensa will be dedicated at Atwater Park (at the intersection of Capitol Dr. and Lake Dr.), in Shorewood, Wis. on Tuesday, September 21 as part of the Village's new public art initiative. The dedication ceremony for "Spillover II" will take place from 6 to 8 p.m. when the public is invited to attend "Plensa in the Park," a celebration that will include food, drinks and comments by the artist.
Shorewood's new major art acquisition is an 8-1/2 ft. crouching human form with rounded contours that sits on a two-feet-high concrete pedestal. The letters that form the open framework suggest that language is our primary tool for experiencing the world and each other, and that we are, essentially, both limited and empowered by this abstract means of translating our experiences. "Spillover II" will be lit from within and will glow at night, acting as a subtle beacon for the park and providing a focal point at the end of the Village's busiest street.
Plensa's work has been exhibited in numerous galleries and museums throughout the U.S., Europe and Japan. In the Midwest, his most famous and recognizable work, The Crown Fountain, is in Chicago's Millennium Park. This work consists of a black granite reflecting pool placed between a pair of 50-ft., glass-block towers. Digital video images/faces of a broad social spectrum of Chicago citizens are projected on the towers, with water flowing through an outlet in the center of the screen, giving the illusion of water spouting from the mouths of the faces.
Shorewood's Plensa sculpture is the first work of art in a comprehensive, though still developing, plan initiated by the Shorewood Public Art Committee, formed in 2001. "Spillover II" was made possible by a generous gift from an anonymous donor. Additional sponsorships include the Shorewood Foundation, the Shorewood Men's Club, the Village of Shorewood Marketing Program and the Village of Shorewood. Sponsors of the dedication event on September 21 are Coalesse and Bentley Prince Street.
The "Plensa in the Park" dedication on Tuesday, September 21 will feature a personal visit from the artist. The public is invited to attend from 6-8 p.m. Spread out a blanket or grab a picnic bench and enjoy the festivities on the night of the Equinox. Beverages and a limited menu will be sold at the event by Hubbard Park Lodge. For more information, please contact Dick Eschner, Public Art Committee Chair, at 414.964.4504 or firstname.lastname@example.com
A post-party fundraiser to benefit Public Art Shorewood will be held after the dedication from 7:30-9 p.m. at the home of James and Vida Langenkamp in Shorewood. Refreshments will be catered by Hubbard Park Lodge and music will be provided by Shorewood High School student musicians. Attendance is limited to 150 people and the cost is $50 per person. To request an invitation, contact Pat Algiers at firstname.lastname@example.com or 414.963.1613.
The Milwaukee area is filled with my husband Adolph's former students. He taught art at UWM for 33 years, and now, eleven years since he retired, they often stop him in the street or at an event to say they studied with him in the '60s, or '70s, or '80s, or '90s and loved his classes. They describe his impact on them and the work they're doing now.
Actually I'm one of Adolph's former students. I studied with him before he started teaching. That was our original agreement in January, 1960: I'd be his model, and he'd be my teacher. It worked out well for both of us!
Whitefish Bay Block Parties
August was a busy month. We took a quick trip to San Diego and Washington DC. Both cities were wonderful and I would love to return to both. California has a gorgeous landscape and DC obviously has the history. It was SO hot in DC that I think a fall trip would be perfect.
We finished August with our annual Shoreland Avenue/Santa Monica Block party. We moved to the block 11 years ago on block party weekend and have not missed one since. Our kids have grown from 3 and 2 years old to 14, 13 and 8 years old. Kids love block parties; fire trucks, bouncy houses, water games, capture the flag and lots of great food.
Immediate plans for handling our sewer problem.
Lives may change in dribs and drabs, in falls, in sudden soars, with trauma, loss, raves and praise, with the people we happen to meet, a dream that awakens us in the night, chance remarks, sudden insights, and we may be aware, or unaware, that something's different.
When Jeff Poniewaz invited me to be part of the Earth Poets in 1988, I did wonder whether I was really a poet, to say nothing of whether I was an Earth Poet! After all, I'd written very few poems, and only one worth mentioning.
Who's in charge? Is there an external force at work, an invisible hand that guides the actions of Shorewood's Board of Trustees?
Last Licks today at Baskin Robbins of Shorewood
So it's the end of another family place in Shorewood. Baskin Robbins is closing on September 26.
I remember walking there with friends in high school. It was a safe destination to walk, it was a good trek for a conversation with family, or with my friend Mike to go get his signature two-scoop cone with mint chocolate chip and chocolate chip. As a parent, is has been a good hook for a walk or ride with the kids, and a really fine complement to a bowl of mish mosh soup at Benji's.
There's a corner house a block from ours, and every time I pass, I inspect the lawn. I want to be sure there are dandelion leaves.
A few years ago I'd sometimes see a stroller leaning against the garage and a dog lying in the grass next to a "pesticide application" sign. One day I saw a woman lift a child into the stroller. I inhaled, oh, I hate doing this, and asked her if she's aware that lawn pesticides pose a danger to her child and her dog.
PNC Bank adding Shorewood location; village Baskin-Robbins closes
PNC Bank is continuing its expansion in the Milwaukee area with another new location, this one at a former Hollywood Video store in Shorewood.
The building, at 4231 N. Oakland Ave., is being renovated to accommodate PNC, said Ericka Lang, Shorewood's planning and zoning administrator. The building has been vacant since Hollywood Video closed in 2009.

Graduate Research Opportunities in the Department
Work closely with faculty in the WSU Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology in an intensive program of research training. Included among the current areas of research are: apoptosis, cancer and oncogenes, DNA repair, DNA replication, regulation of gene expression, in vivo NMR, signal transduction, protein structure and function, viral carcinogenesis and AIDS.
Ph.D. Program
The BMB department participates in an innovative interdisciplinary approach to the biomedical sciences. The Biomedical Sciences Ph.D. Program recognizes the interrelatedness of the various traditional disciplines and seeks to educate scientists to take advantage of developments in diverse areas of research. Classroom and laboratory instruction stresses experiences that span a broad spectrum of knowledge.
The program provides an integrated background in physical, chemical, and biological disciplines and an in-depth experience in research in a chosen sub-field. Graduates are expected to be sufficiently flexible to participate in solving a broad range of complex biomedical problems.
Competitive stipends and health benefits are available to qualifying candidates.
Master's Program
The Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology offers a program of study leading to the Master of Science degree in biochemistry and molecular biology. The major purpose of the M.S. program is to provide the student with a strong biochemical background that can serve as a basis for further graduate or professional study. Graduate study with faculty in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology leading to a Doctor of Philosophy degree is available through the Biomedical Sciences Ph.D. Program.
Major research interests of the department are grouped into three interrelated areas: molecular structure and function, molecular genetics and the application of magnetic resonance (MR) to biomedical research. Specific research projects deal with the structure and function of membranes, proteins and enzymes, nucleic acids, chromatin structure and function, molecular genetics, nucleotide metabolism, and the use of MR to study biochemical phenomena.
Applicants must fulfill the requirements for admission established by the WSU Graduate School. A bachelor's degree in the biochemical, biological or chemical sciences, including course work in organic chemistry, physics and calculus, is generally required. In addition, letters of recommendation are an important admission consideration.
Degree Requirements
Qualification for the Master of Science degree requires a candidate to fulfill the requirements of the WSU Graduate School, to complete departmental course work and to submit an acceptable research thesis.
Summary of Course and Thesis Requirements
- Biochemistry lecture sequence (BMB 7500 and 7520). A grade of B must be obtained in each quarter of these courses. If a B is not obtained, the student may repeat the course (or courses) once. A repeat of BMB 7500 and/or 7520 must be completed within a year of the quarter in which the deficiency occurs.
- Research Perspectives (BMB 7020).
- Research Ethics (BMB 7030).
- Graduate seminars: a total of 4 credit hours of graduate-level seminars in biochemistry or other departments.
- Two additional 7000-level courses: these may include 7000-level courses from other departments.
- The student and his or her thesis advisor will have the responsibility for selecting advanced courses and seminars suited to each student's program needs and interests.
- The thesis must be based on hands-on research. BMB 8990 (or BMB 6990) must be taken each semester the student performs laboratory research. The thesis advisory committee must be made up of at least three faculty from the Department of Biochemistry. The student will orally defend the completed thesis and present a departmental seminar on his or her research.

218 Espanola Way, Miami Beach, FL | Directions 3313925.786855 -80.131030
Neighborhoods: Flamingo / Lummus
Aptly titled and conveniently located within stumbling distance of most of South Beach. – In Short
This bar's essentially a large square room with piped-in rock music--nothing more and nothing less than a place to get hammered. Ask for the house drink, a combination of Goldschlager and Rumpleminz, fondly known as liquid heroin. As for 12-steppers and pregnant women, the bar offers foosball, video games and pool tournaments.
Ladies Drink Free--REALLY! – I went there on a Wednesday night--when ladies drink well drinks and cheap beers for free! Very nice touch.
This is a very "neighborhoody" bar, and a good place to start your night. It reminded me a lot of the bars in Washington, DC. The music is good. Lots of rock, some older rap. Good to listen to.
There are several pool tables--but good luck getting to use one. There seem to be regulars who have staked a claim on them. Still a good place to sit and chat, drink cheap international beers and people watch.
My favorite person there was a "Jay" look alike. As in Jay of "Jay and Silent Bob." It was incredible. My friend and I looked at each other and said, in unison, "Did you see Jay?" Hahaha. He definitely wasn't the actor who played him, though. It was mostly his clothes. I wanted to go back just to see him again.
Bartenders are kind of grumpy and unaware, so the service isn't great, but they're pretty men. The cocktail waitress isn't as pretty, but she gives great service. I recommend ordering your drinks from her. She deserves the tips.

Ethics, Law, and Society Certificate
The Ethics, Law, and Society (ELS) certificate program is designed to encourage the study of normative and value issues in the humanities and social sciences. As ethical competence becomes increasingly important in professional life, students who aspire to careers in the law, the health professions, or business need to be able to demonstrate formal training in ethics. Moreover, competency in ethics requires a broader understanding of the complex relationship between the normative enterprises of law, morality, and politics.
The certificate program in Ethics, Law, and Society requires students to take two courses in philosophy, one of which must be Ethics (PHI 4661), two courses in political science, and one course that takes a normative approach or addresses normative issues in a third discipline, e.g. anthropology, communications, sociology, women's studies, or criminal justice, nursing, medicine, etc. For additional information contact Dr. Clevis Headley at firstname.lastname@example.com or call (561) 297-2928. Applications for the ELS certificate program can be obtained from Dr. Clevis Headley.
Requirements: Five courses (15 credits) passed with a grade of "B" or better from upper-division courses which include the study of values, either substantively or systematically, relating to law, politics, or ethics in the professions, with the following distribution:Two courses from Philosophy, one of which must be Ethics (PHI 4661)

Are YOU Ready????OpSec, The OTHER Necessity in your Survival Plans!!!
Updated 12-19-2010 at 11:32 by Deployment Solu
The purpose of this Blog is to address somethings that you need to do BEFORE disaster strikes.
1. Have a Plan!!! No really, a PLAN. One that has been carefully thought out and practiced its execution. You have amassed a large quantity of food and weapons and ammo, right?? You are going evacuate to ******.
Great you are half-way to surviving. Just a few questions. Is your food/guns/ammo cache at your home. How will you get it to your bug out location? Great! You have a vehicle that will carry all of it? Have you tried loading it all into your vehicle/trailer?? Have you?? Were you out of breath? Surprised at how heavy all that stuff is and how long it took you to get it loaded???? Did you have someone standing security watch over you while you loaded your life saving supplies??
What route will you be taking? Alternate routes if your route is blocked?? You have thought of that right? It may not be like your drive to work everyday..orderly, flowing traffic, courteous drivers...etc.
During a crisis, the best comes out in some people and the worst in others. Since we don't have to worry about the good people at this point, lets talk about the bad. In selecting your route, think about the areas you will be passing through. Residential (good or bad), industrial, farmland. All will have bridges, turns in the road( natural ambush sites), and people trying to get out of Dodge too won't all be good people.
The first part of your plan should be OpSec (Operational Security)
All the food, ammo, survival gear and guns are worthless if you don't survive to get to use them!!
Starting right now. Pay attention to your surroundings. Situational awareness is the first step to OpSec. Your head should be constantly scanning your area.
Threats don't come out of nowhere. They are there, you just need to be looking. Is there something out of place as look out the window before you come out of your house?? Is there a car that does not belong there? Maybe it is the neighbors kids boyfriends car. It may be a bunch of gang bangers who have been casing the neighborhood and saw you carrying guns in and out of your house on the trips to the range. If it is the neighbors kids boyfriends car, no worries, but if it is the other......you need to see it and them before they see you. Once the thin veneer of civility we currently enjoy collapses, people will behave like animals and YOU must be prepared to respond to their aggressions.
Having a second, or a few seconds to respond to the threat may mean the difference between your survival and your obituary!! A LOT can happen in a second.
You will be surprised what you will see once you begin looking. You don't live in a vacuum. The threats are there for you to see.
Operational Security/Situational Awareness is the key that unlocks the door for you to be able to see the threats you would have missed before.

overviewThe Aiptasia Eating Peppermint Shrimp are best known for their natural ability to manage nuisance Aiptasia, or glass anemones. Though considered part of the "cleaner" grouping of shrimp, Lysmata seticaudata is more of a scavenger. The Aiptasia Eating Peppermint Shrimp picks its way around your aquarium and live rock to consume Aiptasia, detritus, uneaten food, and decomposing organic material. This ornamental member of the Hippolytidae family is brightly colored with a creamy white body striped with several thin and distinct longitudinal red bands.
Also known as the Veined Cleaner Shrimp; the Aiptasia Eating Peppermint Shrimp is sometimes confused with its Pacific cousin, Rhynchocinetes durbanensis. However, that shrimp has a pointed nose and inter-spaced white stripes over its body. In the wild, Peppermint Shrimp are usually found in the vertical shafts of the reef. Some even take up residence in the core of pipe sponges. The Aiptasia Eating Peppermint Shrimp does best in home aquariums with live rock, ample places to hide, as well as open areas to scavenge.
Peppermint Shrimp are very social and peaceful towards most reef inhabitants. Like other invertebrates, the Peppermint Shrimp cannot tolerate copper-based medications or high nitrate levels. It also requires supplemental iodine to encourage proper molting of its carapace. In addition to what it obtains from scavenging, the diet of the Peppermint Shrimp should consist of most types of prepared foods and the occasional pieces of fresh fish.
The Aiptasia Eating Peppermint Shrimp has been successfully bred by commercial fish farms, and can be bred in the home aquarium. Rearing the larvae requires specialized feeds and care outside of the display aquarium.

Summary of The Women of Brewster Place Summary of The Women of Brewster Place Reviews for The Women of Brewster Place An Excerpt from The Women of Brewster Place
Once the home of poor Irish and Italian immigrants, Brewster Place, a rotting tenement on a dead-end street, now shelters black families. This novel portrays the courage, the fear, and the anguish of some of the women there who hold their families together, trying to make a home. Among them are: Mattie Michael, the matriarch who loses her son to prison; Etta Mae Johnson who tries to trade the 'high life' for marriage with a local preacher; Kiswana Browne who leaves her middle-class family to organize a tenant's union.

The salary differential between men and women looks more like a chasm than a gap.
We surveyed three primary job responsibilities in association management: Executive management (titles such as CEO, president, executive director), convention management (director or manager of meetings/conventions), and exhibit sales/management (director or manager of trade shows/exhibits). Our sample included only national associations, about equally divided between trade and professional. (See chart opposite.)
Twenty-six percent of respondents were men, and most held executive management positions. Most of the women (53 percent) were in convention management. Tellingly, 21 percent of the male respondents were 60 years or older, compared with 5 percent of females in this category. Thirty percent of the female respondents were 25 to 34 years old, compared with 11 percent of males in this age group. Extrapolating from our sample, there seem to be a lot of older men at the top and a lot of young women at the bottom in association management.
Looking specifically at salaries by title and gender, the mean salary for women in executive management was $75,129, that's $24,198 lower than the mean of $99,327 for men in this position. That considerable chasm is no less apparent in convention management, where the mean for men is $69,003 versus $47,887 for women — a difference of $21,116. We did not have enough of a base of respondents to gather a mean for the men in exhibit sales/management, but the mean for women was $45,109.
Roughly the same percentage of men and women received a bonus/incentive in the last 12 months. The mean for all respondents was $4,792. The mean for all men was $9,116 compared to $3,311 for women, again reflective of the greater number of men in executive management.
Interestingly, salary levels for both sexes were relatively comparable in both executive and convention management job categories up to $70,000, after which a significantly larger percentage of males earn more. Years in the field, age, and years at present job would not seem to be factors in this discrepancy. Annual meeting budget appears to be a factor. Among all females, the mean total budget allocated for meetings was $827,937, while the mean for all male respondents was $1,049,271.
As far as education goes, 30 percent of all males had master's degrees compared to 13 percent of all females. This probably reflects the higher number of males in executive management.
Women overall were responsible on average for 13 meetings a year as compared to 12 for men. Regarding hours a week worked, men on average put in 48 hours a week versus 44.5 for women. Executive management put in 49 hours a week compared to 44 for convention management. (The greater hours worked by men, could reflect that a greater number that are in executive management.)
Convention management or exhibit sales management were not, for the overwhelming majority of those respondents leading associations, a path to executive management. Only 12.5 percent of the women in executive management and 5 percent of the men came to their jobs from convention management background.

Albany State University added another chapter to its rich athletic history with the opening of the Albany Municipal Coliseum in 2004. Perhaps the finest football facility of schools in the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SIAC) and one of the best in Division II football, the Albany Municipal Coliseum seats 10,000 fans for Golden Rams football action. It has become a symbol of pride, tradition and excellence of the Albany State University Golden Rams.
A facility designed to encompass the entire community, the stadium features a modern field house, which includes spacious locker and meeting rooms; prime seating in the Quarterback Club reserved section, an exquisite Quarterback Club lounge with comfortable seating and restrooms, and concession stands and restrooms on both sides of the field. The facility also features the Eula Lovett Hall, a 150-seat community room in the south end zone area. Fans who have visited the coliseum are impressed with the state-of-the-art video-scoreboard.
Phase III for the coliseum calls for installing artificial turf, an expansion of the seating areas in the north end zone, comfortable luxury sky boxes, and the addition of a second level to the press box. Fundraising efforts to expand the stadium are ongoing.

Changing software to nudge researchers toward better data analysis practice
The tools we have available to us affect the way we interact with and even think about the world. "If all you have is a hammer" etc. Along these lines, I've been wondering what would happen if the makers of data analysis software like SPSS, SAS, etc. changed some of the defaults and options. Sort of in the spirit of Nudge — don't necessarily change the list of what is ultimately possible to do, but make changes to make some things easier and other things harder (like via defaults and options).
Would people think about their data differently? Here's my list of how I might change regression procedures, and what I think these changes might do:
1. Let users write common transformations of variables directly into the syntax. Things like centering, z-scoring, log-transforming, multiplying variables into interactions, etc. This is already part of some packages (it's easy to do in R), but not others. In particular, running interactions in SPSS is a huge royal pain. For example, to do a simple 2-way interaction with centered variables, you have to write all this crap *and* cycle back and forth between the code and the output along the way:
desc x1 x2. * Run just the above, then look at the output and see what the means are, then edit the code below. compute x1_c = x1 - [whatever the mean was]. compute x2_c = x2 - [whatever the mean was]. compute x1x2 = x1_c*x2_c. regression /dependent y /enter x1_c x2_c x1x2.
Why shouldn't we be able to do it all in one line like this?
regression /dependent y /enter center(x1) center(x2) center(x1)*center(x2).
The nudge: If it were easy to write everything into a single command, maybe more people would look at interactions more often. And maybe they'd stop doing median splits and then jamming everything into an ANOVA!
2. By default, the output shows you parameter estimates and confidence intervals.
3. Either by default or with an easy-to-implement option, you can get a variety of standardized effect size estimates with their confidence intervals. And let's not make variance-explained metrics (like R^2 or eta^2) the defaults.
The nudge: #2 and #3 are both designed to focus people on point and interval estimation, rather than NHST.
This next one is a little more radical:
4. By default the output does not show you inferential t-tests and p-values — you have to ask for them through an option. And when you ask for them, you have to state what the null hypotheses are! So if you want to test the null that some parameter equals zero (as 99.9% of research in social science does), hey, go for it — but it has to be an active request, not a passive default. And if you want to test a null hypothesis that some parameter is some nonzero value, it would be easy to do that too.
The nudge. In the way a lot of statistics is taught in psychology, NHST is the main event and effect estimation is an afterthought. This would turn it around. And by making users specify a null hypothesis, it might spur us to pause and think about how and why we are doing so, rather than just mining for asterisks to put in tables. Heck, I bet some nontrivial number of psychology researchers don't even know that the null hypothesis doesn't have to be the nil hypothesis. (I still remember the "aha" feeling the first time I learned that you could do that — well along into graduate school, in an elective statistics class.) If we want researchers to move toward point or range predictions with strong hypothesis testing, we should make it easier to do.
All of these things are possible to do in most or all software packages. But as my SPSS example under #1 shows, they're not necessarily easy to implement in a user-friendly way. Even R doesn't do all of these things in the standard lm function. As a result, they probably don't get done as much as they could or should.
Any other nudges you'd make?
November 20, 2012 3:43 am
I like this idea a lot! I'd also recommend:
By default, all graphs & diagrams are 'best practice' e.g. all axes start at 0; it displays confidence intervals; it displays individual data points overlaid over the summary statistics (i.e. it shows a bar graph for the means, but you also get the raw data).
Scatter plots, it draws the regression line, displays the r^2 (not the r!) and p value of the correlation…
simine permalinkNovember 20, 2012 8:31 am
After you hit 'Run' but before you get the output, a window pops up telling you how much power you have to detect a small, medium, and large effect and asks "are you sure you don't want to collect more data first?".
Jake permalinkNovember 21, 2012 4:40 pm
Hi Sanjay, I'm curious what your complaint with variance-explained metrics is.
As for nudges, for me this is an easy one. For regressions with categorical predictors (i.e., ANOVA), remove the "default" contrasts–which are very often not "contrasts" in the sum-to-zero sense at all, but rather dummies–and instead force users to think about and explicitly specify what coding scheme they wish to use for each of their factors. Do you want dummy codes? Okay, which group should be the reference? Contrast codes? Okay, polynomial or Helmert or what? By far the most common mistake that I see people make in interpreting ANOVA output is that they accepted the default contrasts without giving any thought whatever to whether they make sense *or even to what they are* (!), and then they unquestioningly interpret the resulting tests of the parameters as if they all represent straightforward main/simple effects and interactions. Maybe they are (if you got lucky), but very often, unless you thought about your codes, they are not.
One more smaller thought. Can we replace all of those t- and F-tests with bootstrapped confidence intervals already?
Evelyn permalinkDecember 2, 2012 9:27 pm
Jake: There's a good package for bootstrapped confidence intervals in R, called BEST.
EricR permalinkDecember 6, 2012 8:15 am
"And maybe they'd stop doing median splits and then jamming everything into an ANOVA!"
You mean people still DO that?..

Junior Colleges & Technical Institutes >Knoxville Institute-Hair Dsgn
1221 N Central, Knoxville, TN | Directions 3791735.982107 -83.930149
Terrible experiences! Beware of this salon! READ to hear why you should go somewhere else. – Here's the real deal: Don't ever go to this salon if you want to color your hair! They were unprofessional, incompetent, and left me with an ugly head of hair twice.
I had two terrible experiences, one after another.
The first time, I went in to get my roots touched up and highlights. When I left, it honestly looked like I hadn't done anything to it all. Roots still present, hair still brassy. I asked about it, and they girl said "it will all blend when it dries." I left with a wet head only to discover that it never blended. It looked the same as when I came in! Since I had paid $60ish dollars (including tip), I wanted it redone. BTW- an instructor never checked the student's work.
Second bad experience: I called and requested that it be redone. I had a lengthy discussion with one of the instructors about what I wanted. She asked me if I wanted platinum blond. I clearly said "no." We finally agreed on "a little lighter than my natural dark blond as a base color and some lighter blond highlights." Four hours later, I end up with bleach blond hair that was more or less all one big monotone white mess with yellow roots. It was like they heard what I said and did what they wanted to regardless of my wishes. I was devastated since I have an important job interview in a few days.
I would color over it, except my hair is so damaged from the bleach (which they never told me they were using), that I was advised by the stylist to wait "at least a month" to apply new color. When I came in, my hair was soft and supple. Now it feels like straw. I explicitly told the salon that I was not happy, that the color was nothing like we agreed on, I had already spent $60, and I was going to have to redo it.
And here is the kicker: I had to pay yet again for the second mess they did!
I hope you don't have to learn the hard way. Go somewhere else.
